A street guy in a weathered baseball cap and big black jacket comes up from the back.

"Listen, I want you to have this," he says. "Sure, yeah. Let's see, what do we have here..."

He hands me a Criminal History report. The paperwork confirms that he has no history of criminal conviction, in keeping with the Child/Adult Abuse Information Act. Based "on the descriptors provided," in fact, he has no record of child abuse whatsoever. "Shoot," I say. "This looks real great.""Thanks.""Yeah, this is awesome. It's for me to keep?""Yeah, absolutely.""I'm into it. Thanks!"Oh, it's great to be back!
